Hi Michael,
That is very close... (but does have a bug- #9687 - I can save a style, then
try to load it for the same layer opened a second time & get an error:
"error occurred while parsing reference at line 113 column 155")
The line in the QML file is the action, which is appended
to"labeling/shapeFillColorB" as well as an action later in the file.
<property key="labeling/shapeFillColorB" value="255"/>eom
https://atlas.niwa.co.nz/login/SearchService?SERVICE_REQUEST_TYPE=100&SERVICE_REQUEST_USERID=833&SERVICE_REQUEST_ASSETID=[%
"atlas_id" %]&SERVICE_REQUEST_PASSKEY=public"
(Change the Atlas_ID value to 247002 or 247224 & open the URL in a browser to
see the result if you are interested - it is for a map layer of echosounder
transects to retrieve the echogram from our image management tool via a web
service)
Anyway, apart from the bug, as I understand it, that allows me to save a style,
which can then be applied to a layer, but does not inlude the layer data source.
I'd like to be able to open a layer (sort of like a virtual dataset in ogr) by
opening the QGIS layer file, & have the layer load & all settings applied
automatically. Currently I need to open a layer, open properties, select style,
load style, apply style every time I load the layer.
Cheers,
Brent

Brent,
Perhaps I have misunderstood your question, but I think you can achieve this
simply by "save style as default" . Every time you will use the layer in any
QGIS project, the default "style" (which mean the default properties of the
layer) would be applied.

I suggest a slightly different approach (which may not be all that different
once the details are worked out?)
